Yes, Ricardo Montalban and Patrick McGoohan passed away.
The Prisoner is one of my all time favorite t.v. shows.
R.I.P.

that clip was genius. "soft, corinthian leather"... i remember that well from 25+ years ago.

this is probably my favorite montalban role:
YouTube - The Naked Gun - From the files of Police Squad! Trailer

EDIT: bah, mcgoohan passed away too?
he was my suave, scene-gobbling hero from "secret agent man" or whatever that old british series was called.

RIP Mr. Montalban. Funny, in an interview, he stated "Corinthian Leather" wasn't real. Just a nice buzz phrase by the industry to sell product.

It sounds luxurious, though, especially when pronounced by Mr. Montalbán :)
